not sure, but a decat is a lot cheaper. and probably will give more of a gain.

i just bought a janspeed mani, very well made, got it from a 'contact' at janspeed, got it for way less than a raceland would be. and janspeed fit easier.

i just fitted a janspeed to the exact same car it decats it str8 away . fitting it seemd a pain at first coz of the relocating the oil filter but it turned out to be extremely easy sum one has stuck a how to guide for a furio in the forums was extremely helpful as it the same steps for our vtr power gains are gd ad expect about 10 bhp combined with a gd system.

depending on how much money you wanna spend you could get a supersprint and you wouldnt have to move the oil filter. but mcv89 said its easy enough so save those pennies for more mods, upto you my friend
